AJDesign Studio has come up with a Game Boy controller for your iPhone. The slip-on sleeve called G-Pad essentially turns your phone into a retro gaming console. You will be able to play your favorite Nintendo games in the same way you used to.
The sleeve mimics a Game Boy's control system and makes it much easier to play games on your mobile device. Cellphones with touchscreens don't tend to come with very complex games due to the lack of controls, so this small and portable sleeve is perfect for the video game enthusiast.
Unfortunately, it’s only a prototype and looking for crowd funding, but the gamer community is bound to support this amazing tech device.
